[PATCH 1/2] mm/slab: restore the rcutree. prefix of the kvfree_rcu parameters
From: Zhan Xusheng
Date: Wed Oct 28 2026 - 09:47:52 EST
From: Zhan Xusheng <zhanxusheng@xxxxxxxxxx>
The move of kvfree_rcu() to mm/slab_common.c dropped the "rcutree."
MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX, so rcu_min_cached_objs and
rcu_delay_page_cache_fill_msec became slab_common.* and the documented
rcutree.* names are silently ignored. Restore the prefix; the
slab_common.* names, never documented, stop working.
Fixes: bbe658d65802 ("mm/slab: Move kvfree_rcu() into SLAB")
